Zander’s POV
Across the canvas of my closed eyelids, I saw a face as bright as the morning sun with eyes glimmering as if diamonds under light. The lips were smiling at me softly making me feel warm inside. I had an urge to touch them with my own mouth and drink the glossy juice of red they were stained with.
When the lashes of those eyes flickered, my heart skipped a beat as I gasped at the serene look of them. Those cheeks were red as beet. One could get a shade of it on their fingers if they brushed them on the curvatures of her facade. I had sought to do exactly the same when I lifted my hand.
No sooner had I settled the tips of my fingers on her soft skin, she turned into a pack of butterflies and scattered everywhere around me, those later took the shape of smoke and draped me back and forth until I could see nothing but darkness.
And then suddenly
Their love will demand more sacrifices than Ryley and Valen's. I hope you guys are ready for the upcoming chapters as they going to be too much to expect. Hope you've already have a box of tissues with you! Do vote and comment. XOXO Target- 5 comments. Lysm.
"Milan, baby you're okay?" With his shoulder bleeding and painful cramps twisting his stomach where he was punctured by the Ifrit, Zander dashed inside Milan's special ward, caring least about himself. He held her close to his chest as his heavy breaths hit against her tender shoulder. He was shivering in fear. The tears of terror trickled below his lower lashes as he kissed her everywhere on her hair and shoulder. "Milan," His voice cracked, throat turned dry. Words got stuck in his dry throat and chest became heavy. "Zany, the monster hit me here, look." She stretched her little hands out for him to take a glance on her white soft skin. She was fine until she saw Zander and now her eyes were starting to get wet. His heart sank at the view. There were deep scratches and nail marks so deep they didn't look normal. Her arms were tiny hence the marks and scratches seemed extraordinarily b
The door behind Jason unfastened and Ryley appeared from it. He passed a grin of hesitation as he landed his eyes on his alpha father. ‘You must stay out of this, Ryley. I know it would be hard for you to follow my instruction as Zane is your friend but you will have to try. Not for yourself but the pack and for your mother. You are the future of this pack. I don’t want both the leaders of the pack falling into danger.” He recollected his father’s words from the other night that he told to him once they arranged to transport an injured Zane to the hospital. However, how could he not interfere in this matter? It was not just about his friend damn it… but also about being loyal to their friendship. No matter the time, situation, fights, or any other obstacle; Zander always came to his help. Last year when it was Ryley in this place, Zander did come for his aid even when he was not told about Valen being his mate. He was angry yet he ran side by side with him an
Suffocating atmosphere. Dark room. Pin drop silence. And a silent Zander laying on the hospital bed. He was covered with sweat from head to toe. The white thin mattress under him was a pool of wetness. Ryley's blood was showing its effect on him. While the dusky suffocating air became even worse, the cut on his forehead closed bit by bit until there was no opening nor scar left. The creases from his forehead, the tension in muscles as well as the soreness in his stomach subsided, making him feel subconsciously better. He was still faint yet he could feel himself in discomfort and draped in heat as sweat beads increased on his body. It was as if he just came out from a very hot shower and laid in a room sheeted under the hotness of a heater, amplifying his sweating. His muscles tensed again as the blood injected in his body was at the end phase of healing. Zander shook invariably as thou
Outside, the golden glitters of sun was draping earth in its cloak while here, inside, it was the rays of joy and hope creeping on Ryley's mouth. A few droplets of happy tears blurred his eyes as he pulled Zander into his embrace. "Dude, you do not know how much I missed you!" His voice showed his emotions. Although Zander was mentally yearning for one and only, his mate, Reyne; he was compelled to welcome Ryley's happiness. His own mouth smiled. Zander sighed near his shoulder, feeling his friendship yielding him more and more strength. "I miss her, Ryley. I want her." Unlike his actions, his heart addressed something else. Ryley broke the hug. He was still smiling between his emotional profile as he shook his head in agreement. Well honestly, Ryley missed Reyne too. Because she was his best friend's love and who could know better than him how it feels to have your love kidnapped and taken a
99Zander's POV'Control, Zander. Control.' With my fingers balled up, feet restlessly tapping on the cold floor and eyes staring nowhere in the air, I tried to keep cool.My head was a boiling volcano. I can feel the bubble popping in my skull and exasperation boil like lava in its mouth. Why? Because I was not being heard. These stupid alphas were not ready to listen to me. They drew their own stupid guesses while applying ever so bloody stupid logics."Gosh, I am telling you guys, let's just go and fuck that orc. I bet he'd spill out truth better than our stupid guessing." this was the third time I gritted and interrupted the alpha leaders between their conversations.They were generally discussing the statement in Hiatian language the army of green slimy morons had aforementioned across from me. The alphas had a big fat old book spread on the glass table in the middle of the
Dark Shine Pack's Prison, "Sir, please!" "You can't break the rules." A bunch of guards hustled behind us as they attempted to stop us from barging in the Dark Shine Pack's prison. We do not have underground cells any more. With modernization, our way of handling the rogues and other criminals also improved. Now we have a huge building aka a prison built for the guilty. It is located outside the residential area and under tight security. Ryley and I nonetheless broke it. We not just broke in using our car inside the gates but also slit through the wall of wardens trying to seize our movements. Yet, using our speedy inhuman run and wolf abilities we managed to invade our fathers' organized security. "He is held in the below-ground cell under a high-tech area." Ryley spoke as we continued walking hastily further and further.
101 The evening sun cast long shadows on the ground. The slanting rays of the setting sun gave a warm orange tinge to the sky. Afternoon was getting replaced by the evening nonetheless no exceptional variation was observed in the house of Alpha Hercules. It was as is. Occupied with Alpha males and their Betas. Books scattered all over the table between the couch. Some even littered near their feet. Empty dozen cups of coffee and tea alongside platters with cookie crumbs sat somewhere by the side of the couch or under the table. The ladies were tiringly yawning. The male still absorbed into the books with the intent to find out something strong and helpful. Sadly, no distinct clue could be achieved. They made no progress except for shuffling from one suspect to the other. It was hard to comprehend where and how the Ifrit came and went. For the first time, all the best Alphas and the best st
Tears.A lot of tears not only blanketed Zander's vision but also clogged his breathing.The oxygen he had gulped after escorting the old woman inside now froze in his lungs, making his abdominal muscles clench in anxiety.A week. Or maybe more. Or maybe it was after an eternity that he was meeting with someone who met his Reyne recently. It was difficult to put this feeling into words and had it not been so hard to process it, he would have instantly thrown a set of questions in the old lady's way and obtained his answers.Sadly, his voice was gone. The rigidity his muscles engulfed did not seem to leave him any sooner. His rational thinking was overpowered by bewilderment and he quietly, absent-mindedly and mentally scared for his mate's well-being, followed the woman to the foyer.The alphas welcomed her with nervous smiles. They emp
